Having followed the original thread with some interest, I find the whole situation somewhat amusing. If anything, gwern should have stopped engaging you earlier rather than later, but that's his noble phantasm -- and so here we are.
I imagine this now follows a death spiral of some sort, where you forum-seek for someone, somewhere, who agrees with you on this minor political point.
So, "people shouldn't be assholes" is a minor political point? If this is such minor point, why did EY write an entire article on the point, and why is this article one of the most prominently linked-to article?
Being an asshole is noble?
'noble phantasm' is probably a reference to Fate/Stay Night, wherein a noble phantasm is a weapon or object of unusual reknown which a certain class of beings have that grants them signature powers.
Do you have something substantive to say about why gwern should have stopped engaging with me?
